It's time to rest and relax. We are just going to sit and be today. Nice and simple. Be here, be present, be accepting, be you. One thing I like to remind people is that you can still practice mindfulness and be stressed. You can still meditate and be overwhelmed. That’s WHY we practice these things! They help us cope.
